Remove some of the rubbish that has been accumulating in the default LocalSettings.php for years, especially code as opposed to configuration data:

• Don't set $IP. The entry point already sets it, so there's no point. Users can still set it if they can figure out a way to do it without breaking things.
• Don't include DefaultSettings.php. Doing that is code, not configuration, and it can easily be done in WebStart/Maintenance. Some non-standard entry points in extensions may be broken by this. That's their fault for being non-standard. Backwards compatibility is preserved thanks to require_once().
• Introduce $wgInvalidateCacheOnLocalSettingsChange, which when set, causes $wgCacheEpoch to be updated in the way that it previously was in the default LocalSettings.php.
• Don't set $wgLocalInterwiki to some nonsense value (possibly including spaces and punctuation in the new installer). It should be only for actual interwiki prefixes. Since most wikis don't have them, I set this to false by default and adjusted the referring code to accept this.
• Removed the guard for web invocation with $wgCommandLineMode set. This ancient code is redundant with modern protections in doMaintenance.php.
• In DefaultSettings.php, fixed fold terminator placement near $wgLoadScript
• Add a web entry point guard. That's one piece of code which really is necessary.
